Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 16769

(Camino Graveyard :: General, defect)

Description

[Fabrizio Giudici]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; Intel Mac OS X; en) AppleWebKit/418.9 (KHTML, like Gecko) Safari/419.3
Build Identifier: Camino 1.0.3

I just realized that Camino renders JPEG images with dull colors, probably a problem with managing their color space. Don't underestimate this, it's not just a cosmetic problem: it's a killer problem for people involved in photography!

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Connect to the ULR provided - it shows a page with a picture of a bird
2. Open side-by-side the same page with Safari and compare colors
3. Alternatively, save the image, open it with Preview and compare colors

Actual Results:  
Colors in Camino are dull.

Expected Results:  
Colors in Safari and Preview are rich as expected.

Tested on a MacBook Pro.
